Welcome to the year of YOU! As we dive into 2024, it's all about embracing your unique love story and making your wedding day a true reflection of YOU. Say goodbye to cookie-cutter weddings and hello to personalisation, creativity, and loads of fun! Here are the top trends shaking up the wedding scene this year:
You Do You: Your wedding day is all about celebrating your love, your story, and your vibe. Forget about pleasing everyone else—this day is about YOU. Embrace what makes you both unique and plan the wedding of your dreams without worrying about anyone else's opinions. It's your time to shine!
Unconventional Venues: Step aside, traditional ballrooms—2024 is all about thinking outside the box when it comes to wedding venues. Picture-perfect barns, romantic vineyards, and trendy industrial spaces are stealing the spotlight as couples seek out unique settings to host their celebrations. These venues provide the perfect canvas for you to shine and also allow bold florals to take centre stage, transforming the space into your dream wedding wonderland.
Non-Traditional Wedding Dresses: White may be classic, but who says you have to stick to tradition? The bridal world is buzzing with excitement over the rise of non-traditional wedding dresses, and this trend is showing no signs of slowing down. From blush and champagne hues to daring shades of red or black, brides are veering away from tradition and embracing dresses that reflect their unique personalities. It's all about making a statement and standing out from the crowd.
Bow-tiful Details: Get ready to tie the knot—literally! Bows are making a splash in the wedding world, adding a touch of drama and softness to your wedding look. Whether adorning the back of dresses, oversized in your hair, or adding a whimsical touch to your shoes, bows are the perfect way to infuse your bridal style with romance and charm. And it doesn't stop there—wedding tablescapes are getting a makeover too, with bows adorning candles, flowers, and champagne coupes for an extra dose of elegance.
Illustrations & Handcrafted Stationery: Custom illustrations and handcrafted stationery are on the rise. From delicate watercolour designs adorning your invitations to live illustration guest portraits capturing the magic of your day in real-time, these artistic touches are set to steal the spotlight in 2024. Not only are they stunningly beautiful, but they also serve as cherished keepsakes long after the celebration is over.

And for an extra dose of nostalgia, retro-style film photography is making a comeback, offering a timeless and dreamy aesthetic that's sure to stand the test of time.
Champagne Towers: What's old is new again, and champagne towers are proof of that! Elevate your celebration with a touch of old-world glamour as you indulge in the art of the champagne tower. Not only do these sparkling structures add a touch of glitz and glam to your reception, but they also serve as a surefire way to kick off the festivities in style.
